Learner goals and capabilities

The University of Memphis invites you to collaborate with our dynamic Spanish course students as they prepare to become adept professionals in the Spanish-speaking business world. These students are engaged in a comprehensive curriculum that teaches them Spanish while immersing them in the theoretical, communicative, financial, and legal aspects of business, with a particular focus on the tourism sector. This unique blend of language and business studies equips our learners with the essential skills to excel in international business environments.

  • Understand and produce precise oral and written business communications.
  • Create professional internal business documents.
  • Seamlessly switch between formal and informal registers.
